Chapter 107: Guarding a Love
"Dad, what did Songzi tell you......" Hou Yan felt as if things were going to go in a bad direction, and he couldn't help but stare with bated breath, his heart pounding.
Liu Yun'er must not let the second elder know about her marriage, otherwise there may be some consequences.
He didn't say anything, just told us that you told him that you and Yun'er were going to get married. β
Liu Fen said as she gave Hou Yan a look, signaling him to admit it quickly, lest Hou Zhiyuan and the others get angry again.
"Mom, that's all nonsense I was talking about when I drank too much, what's the matter. Hou Yan casually made up a reason, and he didn't know if he could cope with the past.
Hou Zhiyuan's big hand, which was still stroking Hou Yan, suddenly stopped, and patted him on the back hard, almost beating out the porridge he had just drunk, so frightened that Hou Yan closed his lips, and couldn't swallow a mouthful of porridge in his mouth, and didn't dare to spit it out.
"What are you talking about, stinky boy? You and Yun'er are not married? Who is married to Yun'er?" Hou Zhiyuan's loud voice shook his ears.
Hou Yan has always been afraid of his irascible father, and now that he is lying, his heart is even more empty, and his voice naturally becomes much smaller, "No one will marry Yun'er, don't worry about it two of you." β
After Hou Zhiyuan heard Hou Yan's words, not only did he not believe his nonsense, but he was furious, the two beards at the corners of his mouth were raised angrily, and he grabbed the back of Hou Yan's neck with one hand, and yelled at Hou Yan: "You little bastard, don't try to lie to Lao Tzu, be careful that Lao Tzu breaks your legs." β
Hou Yan's body shrunk into a heap, hugged his poor self tightly, and his weak and helpless eyes turned to his mother, hoping that Liu Fen would stop Hou Zhiyuan later.
Liu Fen was dissatisfied with her husband's atrocities, and hurriedly pulled away the angry Hou Zhiyuan, protected Hou Yan and said, "Son, you are honest, what is going on? Your father called his old comrade-in-arms to confirm that Yun'er is indeed getting married." β
Hou Yan hid behind his mother, peeked at Hou Zhiyuan, who was still blowing his eyebrows and glaring, and said, "Then if I say it, don't let my father beat me......"
"It's okay, I'm here to protect you, your father doesn't dare to do it. Liu Fen glanced at her husband and asked him to stand there quietly, if he didn't play or not, it would depend on how Hou Yan explained, and if he didn't explain well, it might be mixed doubles.
Hou Yan saw that his father had no tendency to do it again, so he wrapped himself tightly in the quilt and told him what he knew.
From the beginning when he met Liu Yuner at the beach, Liu Yuner committed suicide by jumping into the sea because she was forced to marry by her family, and saved her, and the two of them made a private decision together for life, and then he took Liu Yuner home, and then about the time when he went to Kuafu Mountain, he went on a business trip to the field for work reasons, and was abandoned by Liu Yuner when he came back, and learned that Liu Yuner was going to marry Qiao Jian.
Because Hou Yan is not Ai Qing, when he narrates the whole thing, he has always summarized from Ai Qing's perspective, and his emotions are very stable, except for regret for this marriage, there is not much sadness.
He thinks it's nothing, isn't it just a daughter-in-law, and if he brings Jiang Yulian back another day, it may not be worse than Liu Yun'er, but this doesn't mean that his parents will be very calm after hearing it.
"Okay, good, okay, you Liu Qingshan, I won't go looking for you, and now it's actually bullying me, I'm almost angry......" Hou Zhiyuan stood there and muttered to himself, suddenly his eyes rolled and he fainted directly, but fortunately, Liu Fen held it in time and didn't fall to the ground.
Hou Yan didn't expect this incident to have such a big impact on Hou Zhiyuan, Hou Zhiyuan, who has always been strong-willed, was actually stunned, mainly because this reversal was too unexpected, he quickly ran to Hou Zhiyuan's side, took out an emergency pill from his pocket and stuffed it into Hou Zhiyuan's mouth.
"Monkey, what are you doing in a daze? Call 120 to call an ambulance!" Liu Fen shouted.
Hou Zhiyuan is nearly eighty years old this year, with white hair on his head, no matter how tough his body is, he can't afford to toss like this.
With the sound of sirens, the ambulance stopped in the courtyard of the community, and several nurses in white coats tried to carry Hou Zhiyuan down on a stretcher.
Hou Yan looked at the thin nurse and felt that it was too time-consuming, so he picked up his father and ran to the ambulance downstairs.
The ambulance was unimpeded all the way and smoothly sent Hou Zhiyuan to the emergency room, leaving Hou Yan and Liu Fen standing anxiously outside the door waiting, the red light on the door of the emergency room was like a demon's smile, tormenting the mother and son.
"Mom, my dad should be fine, right?" Hou Yan circled back and forth outside the door, glancing at the warning light every few seconds.
Before Liu Fen could answer his words, a phone rang from his trouser pocket.
Where did Hou Yan have the mood to answer the phone and ignore it, but the phone rang again and again, like a debt collector, Hou Yan, who was endless, took out his mobile phone and shouted: "Hey, who?"
"Monkey, Xiaofang has been kidnapped!"
"What?" Hou Yan exclaimed, gently patting Liu Fen's shoulder beside him, signaling that he had something more urgent.
Liu Fen was frightened by Hou Yan's voice, and before she could react, she saw Hou Yan running towards the outside of the hospital at a speed of 100 meters.
Hou Yan didn't understand why someone kidnapped Xiaofang, she was just a girl who had just come out of the countryside, and it stands to reason that it was impossible to offend anyone.
He is now running towards the location that Zhao Song said, the distance is not very far, and he is running faster than taking a car.
When Zhao Song was still working in the morning, he suddenly received a call from Yu Fang's colleague, saying that Yu Fang was taken away by a car when she was shopping with them, and she didn't know where she went.
But soon after, they received a distress message from Fang's mobile phone, and immediately called Yu Fang's boyfriend Zhao Song.
Zhao Song didn't want to trouble Hou Yan, after all, the incident that night caused the relationship between the three of them to be very delicate now, and it would be awkward to even meet.
He was just about to call the police, but he received a message from the kidnappers who used Fang's mobile phone to send it to Zhao Song, probably not letting him call the police, and he didn't need a ransom, just to ask Hou Yan to come to him alone to ransom people.
The kidnappers originally wanted to send the news directly to Hou Yan himself, but Hou Yan's mobile phone he had just changed couldn't contact him, so he had to casually find someone in the address book who was often contacted, that is, Zhao Song.
Zhao Song stood anxiously on the street of a commercial street, holding his mobile phone in his hand, walking back and forth under his feet, his head kept looking around, waiting for Hou Yan's arrival.
"Songzi, what's going on?" Hou Yan patted Zhao Song's shoulder, brothers are still brothers after all, they must help at a critical time, and this matter seems to be caused by him, otherwise why would the kidnappers look for him?
Zhao Song pulled Hou Yan to a corner where no one was around, and showed Hou Yan the information received on his mobile phone.
The text message said that at eight o'clock tonight, Hou Yan was asked to negotiate with the kidnappers alone, and if Hou Yan was late or called the police, then Yu Fang's life would be threatened.
"Monkey, why didn't this kidnapper say the location?"
"Hmph, it seems to be quite professional, and it is estimated that the location will be sent to the mobile phone at seven o'clock. Hou Yan covered his face with one hand to cover his hideous expression, he was really angry this time, his father was still lying in the hospital, and he was in such a big trouble here.
Zhao Song looked at the text message, he was not stupid, he naturally guessed that this was a kidnapping case against Hou Yan, and the kidnappers did not ask for money or other aspects, as long as Hou Yan was alone, it was very likely to pose a danger to Hou Yan.
"Monkey, are you going?" He must have hoped that Hou Yan was going to save Yu Fang, after all, Yu Fang was now his fiancΓ©e, and he was worried about his brother's safety, so he was in a dilemma and couldn't make a decision.
"Go, of course I want to go, I don't believe he can do what about me!" Hou Yan said coldly, the confidence in his heart was full of confidence.
If someone deliberately set a trap for him, he might really be in trouble, but Ai Qing was on duty at eight o'clock tonight, at least for now, Ai Qing's ability has not fallen off the chain.
Zhao Song's mobile phone was temporarily placed in Hou Yan's hand, so that he could receive the news from the kidnappers in time.
"Monkey, where are we going now?" There were still several hours left before the kidnappers had agreed, and the wait during this time was undoubtedly the most torturous.
Hou Yan took a deep breath and said, "Go to the hospital first, and leave the rest to me." β
"Hospital, what are you doing in the hospital?"
"My dad fainted, and now I don't know if I'm awake or not. β
When on the way, Hou Yan explained to Zhao Song the reason why Hou Zhiyuan was stunned, he didn't blame Zhao Song, those who didn't know were not guilty, Zhao Song also hoped that the second old man would be happy out of kindness.
"Monkey, I'm sorry, I didn't know it was like this......" Zhao Song wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, he didn't have the face to talk to Hou Yan, when Hou Yan was the most sad, he not only didn't give him comfort in time, but also used Fang's things to stimulate him, it was simply a crime.
Hou Yan smiled and said, "Don't care, everything will pass, everything will be fine." β
"Then I ...... with Xiaofang" Zhao Song means that since Liu Yun'er is married to someone else, then Hou Yan is single now, should he get back together with Yu Fang, and he should also withdraw from this complicated relationship.
Hou Yan shook his head, he had seen through it thoroughly, no matter who Liu Yun'er married, it was Ai Qing's business, it didn't have much impact on him, he still had Jiang Yulian, and he still couldn't give Yu Fang the life he wanted, so he still had to ask Zhao Song to help him complete the mission he couldn't do.
"These are the past, you two pick a good day and an auspicious day, and hold the wedding as soon as possible, I will drink your wedding wine, and it is best to hurry up and have a child, after all, you are not young. Hou Yan can have the courage to say these words, and the boulder in his heart can be regarded as letting go, for him and Yu Fang, this is the best ending.
Zhao Song suddenly held Hou Yan's hand, put it in his heart, and said to him: "Monkey, don't worry, I will definitely treat Xiaofang well and protect her with my life." β
"Thank you!" Hou Yan understood that Zhao Song was not showing off anything to him, but promising him that it was not only Yu Fang who was guarding, but also the first love in his heart.
